The Reason for Our Confidence

Our Lady of Divine Providence - Turris Eburnea House, Caieiras (Brazil) We could ask why Our Lady is called the Mother of Divine Providence. She bears this title, not because She gave birth to Divine Providence, but because She is entrusted, according to the designs of the Most High, with …

Reborn in the Heart of Mary

T he Paraclete was united to Mary in such an intimate and profound way that they formed, so to speak, one single spirit; the Comforter accomplished everything through His Spouse and begot all graces within Her. But it was necessary that Our Lady be introduced, as it were, into the …

St. Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church

St. Joseph has ­already been proclaimed Patron of the Universal Church, but he has not yet shown to humanity the strength of his arm. “Tempus faciendi!” The days are at hand in which, under the protection of the virginal father of Jesus, God’s chosen ones will perform great feats in …

Combative and Serene Purity

Catholic hagiography and iconography present St. Anthony of Padua to us as an exceedingly placid man, a man whose orderliness of soul is even reflected in the harmonious folds of his Franciscan habit. Indeed, the invariable composure of his vesture is a type of seismograph of the orderliness of his …

Saint, King and Hero
